Book this tour! - We had a great time visiting the Cu Chi Tunnels and the Mekong Delta. Our guide Eric was nice, fun and most informative and his grasp of English was fine. Driver did a good job also and we were able to customise the tour and decide where to spend more time in both places following Eric’s advice. Lunch and entrance fees are included. It is a long day so do not make plans for the afternoon! A great option to cover the Cu Chi Tunnels and the Mekong in one day if you do not have much time in Ho Chi Minh. 100% recommended.

Five stars - We went on the Cu Chi Tunnels and Mekong Delta tour with Mekong Silt Tour and it was AWESOME! Our guide was so cool and knew everything about the places we visited. He made the tour really fun and entertaining.
We got to see the Cu Chi Tunnels, which were super interesting and we learned a lot about the war. Then we went to the Mekong Delta, which was so beautiful and peaceful. We took a boat ride, visited a fruit farm, and tried some yummy local food.
I had the best time on this tour and would definitely recommend it to anyone visiting Ho Chi Minh City. The guide and program were both awesome and I give it five stars.

Amazing day - We had the Cu Chi Tunnels and Mekong Delta tour with Eric as our guide and it was absolutely fantastic! Eric was a lovely guide who was very knowledgeable about the history of the tunnels and the culture of the Mekong Delta. He made the tour informative and fun at the same time.
The Cu Chi Tunnels were an incredible experience, and Eric's explanations made it easy to understand the importance of these tunnels in the Vietnam War. The boat ride in the Mekong Delta was beautiful, and we got to see a side of Vietnam that we wouldn't have seen otherwise. Eric was also very flexible and made sure we got to try some of the delicious local food.
I would highly recommend this tour and Eric as a guide. He made the experience unforgettable, and I learned so much about Vietnam's history and culture. Thank you for an amazing day.

It was a satisfying day - I recently had the pleasure of experiencing the Cuchi Tunnels and Mekong Delta in just one day. Let me start by saying that the tour was exceptionally well-arranged, and the timing was spot-on. We started early, around 7 am, which allowed us to avoid the crowds and enjoy the attractions without feeling rushed.
The highlight of the tour was undoubtedly the Cuchi Tunnels. It was a fascinating experience to learn about the history and significance of these underground tunnels, which were used by the Viet Cong during the Vietnam War. The guide was knowledgeable and provided us with interesting insights into the lives of the soldiers who used these tunnels.
After the tunnels, we made our way to the Mekong Delta, where we were treated to delicious food and fruit. The area was beautiful and tranquil, providing the perfect setting for relaxation after the excitement of the tunnels. The tour ended on a high note, leaving us feeling thoroughly satisfied with our day.

Wonderful day with fantastic guide - Our tour guide, Mr. Eric, was absolutely fantastic! In just one day, he provided us with so much information about Vietnam that this tour easily became the most interesting one I took throughout my entire trip. He made the tour fun and engaging the entire time, and the day passed by so quickly that I was amazed at how much we managed to cover. If you're visiting Ho Chi Minh, I highly recommend this tour to anyone. The Cu Chi tunnels are a must-see, but I also enjoyed the combination day tour as I had limited time in the area and wanted to see both. Thank you, Mr. Eric, for being an excellent tour guide!

An interesting day - My family and I had a beautiful day with Erik visiting the Cu Chi Tunnels and the Mekong River. Our guide was full of energy and made the trip more interesting. The tunnels were so intriguing that we were eager to go inside, and luckily, all of us fit in them. The Mekong Delta provided a relaxing time for us, as we took a small boat through the coconut canals. It was an interesting day

Lovely guide and good tour - We had a beautiful day with Erik exploring the Cu Chi Tunnels and the Mekong River. The program was very flexible and well-timed. We started at 7am and fortunately, the places we visited were not crowded. The tunnels were amazing, and we had the opportunity to explore long and narrow tunnels. The Mekong River was great with a small private boat, and rowing through the coconut canals was perfect.

We had a great time - We visited Ho Chi Minh City for just four days and decided to join a tour, which we thoroughly enjoyed. The day was quite long, starting at 7am and finishing at around 6pm, but there were many fun and interesting things to do. The highlight of the tour was the tunnels, which we were excited to explore. Fortunately, it was not too crowded when we arrived. Our guide was knowledgeable about the history of the tunnels and shared some interesting stories about the war. The Mekong Delta was also beautiful, with plenty of delicious fruits and food. Overall, we had a great time on the tour.

Private service with excellent timing - We spent our day touring the Cu Chi Tunnels and the Mekong Delta, and it was really nice to have a private service with excellent timing. We had a great time, especially during the morning trip to the tunnels. It was truly amazing! The Mekong Delta in the afternoon was also enjoyable, with good food and scenery, but the highlight was definitely the tunnels
